		<description>I love this story, it made me weepy with nostalgia and anticipation all at the same time.  My girls are 5, 10, 11, 13 and 16.  Oh, and envy, too.  (Thanks for visiting me; hope your fried green tomatoes turned out to expectation!)

		<description>And now I look more closely at your blog, and I see you&#039;re a dog lover as well. :)  I had my first dog, Samantha, for 16 years. She was my best friend and my own true heart.  I missed her so much when she died, it took me quite a few years before I could bear to have another.  Now we have Genevieve, who we adopted when she was 4 (she&#039;s 10 now), and she&#039;s a very good girl.  Don&#039;t tell her, but I don&#039;t know if any dog will be my own true heart the way my Sammy was.  I don&#039;t know if it&#039;s that way for everyone, or if she was just that special.
